- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5A light-weight book on ancient Egypt, describing the life of the villagers who cut the tombs and decorate the temples of the Valley of the Kings. Basically a soap opera about conniving bureaucrats trying to find the secrets of the craftsmen, who are held in Masonic-like oaths of fidelity. The good and the bad among mostly two-dimensional characters. A good read for pleasure or as a passenger on a long bus journey, but not for either understanding or depth.
